Interfaces Detailed Description
System-on-Chip (SoC)
NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPU Controller is a family of advanced DPU Controller IC solutions
that integrate a coherent mesh of 64-bit Armv8.2+ A78 Hercules cores , an NVIDIA®
ConnectX®-7 network adapter front-end, and a PCI Express switch into a single chip. The
powerful DPU Controller IC architecture includes an Armv multicore processor array,
enabling customers to develop sophisticated applications and highly differentiated
feature sets. Leverages the rich Arm software ecosystem and introduces the ability to
offload the x86 software stack.
At the heart of BlueField-3, the ConnectX-7 network offload controller with RDMA and
RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) technology delivers cutting-edge performance for
networking and storage applications such as NVMe over Fabrics. Advanced features
include an embedded virtual switch with programmable access lists (ACLs), transport
offloads, and stateless encaps/decaps of NVGRE, VXLAN, and MPLS overlay protocols.
Encryption
DPU Controller addresses the concerns of modern data centers by combining hardware
encryption accelerators with embedded software and fully integrated advanced network
capabilities, making it an ideal platform for developing proprietary security applications.
It enables a distributed security architecture by isolating and protecting each workload
and providing flexible control and visibility at the server and workload level; controlling
